    • Compact representations of spatial hierarchical structures with support for topological queries 

      Fuentes Sepúlveda, José; Gatica, Diego; Navarro, Gonzalo; Rodríguez, M. Andrea; Seco, Diego (Elsevier Inc., 2023-06)
      [Abstract]: Among different spatial data models, the topological model for spatial regions explicitly represents common boundaries. This model pursues the efficiency of topology-related queries and the elimination of data ...
    • Efficient and Compact Representations of Some Non-canonical Prefix-Free Codes 

      Fariña, Antonio; Gagie, Travis; Manzini, Giovanni; Navarro, Gonzalo; Ordóñez, Alberto (Springer, 2016-09-21)
      [Abstract] For many kinds of prefix-free codes there are efficient and compact alternatives to the traditional tree-based representation. Since these put the codes into canonical form, however, they can only be used when ...
    • Efficient Representation of Multidimensional Data over Hierarchical Domains 

      Brisaboa, Nieves R.; Cerdeira-Pena, Ana; López López, Narciso; Navarro, Gonzalo; Penabad, Miguel R.; Silva-Coira, Fernando (Springer, 2016-09-21)
      [Abstract] We consider the problem of representing multidimensional data where the domain of each dimension is organized hierarchically, and the queries require summary information at a different node in the hierarchy of ...
    • Exploiting Computation-Friendly Graph Compression Methods for Adjacency-Matrix Multiplication 

      Francisco, Alexandre P.; Gagie, Travis; Ladra, Susana; Navarro, Gonzalo (IEEE Computer Society, 2018-03)
      [Abstract] Computing the product of the (binary) adjacency matrix of a large graph with a real-valued vector is an important operation that lies at the heart of various graph analysis tasks, such as computing PageRank. In ...
    • Extending general compact querieable representations to GIS applications 

      Brisaboa, Nieves R.; Cerdeira-Pena, Ana; Bernardo, Guillermo de; Navarro, Gonzalo; Pedreira, Óscar (Elsevier, 2020-01)
      [Abstract]: The raster model is commonly used for the representation of images in many domains, and is especially useful in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to store information about continuous variables of the space ...
    • Faster compressed quadtrees 

      Bernardo, Guillermo de; Gagie, Travis; Ladra, Susana; Navarro, Gonzalo; Seco, Diego (Elsevier B.V., 2023-02)
      [Abstract]: Real-world point sets tend to be clustered, so using a machine word for each point is wasteful. In this paper we first show how a compact representation of quadtrees using O(1) bits per node can break this bound ...
    • GraCT: A Grammar Based Compressed Representation of Trajectories 

      Brisaboa, Nieves R.; Gómez-Brandón, Adrián; Navarro, Gonzalo; Paramá, José R. (Springer, 2016-09-21)
      [Abstract] We present a compressed data structure to store free trajectories of moving objects (ships over the sea, for example) allowing spatio-temporal queries. Our method, GraCT, uses a k2k2 -tree to store the absolute ...
    • GraCT: A Grammar-based Compressed Index for Trajectory Data 

      Brisaboa, Nieves R.; Gómez-Brandón, Adrián; Navarro, Gonzalo; Paramá, José R. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      [Abstract]: We introduce a compressed data structure for the storage of free trajectories of moving objects that efficiently supports various spatio-temporal queries. Our structure, dubbed GraCT, stores the absolute positions ...
    • Grammar compressed sequences with rank/select support 

      Ordóñez, Alberto; Navarro, Gonzalo; Brisaboa, Nieves R. (Elsevier BV, 2016-10-14)
      [Abstract] Sequence representations supporting not only direct access to their symbols, but also rank/select operations, are a fundamental building block in many compressed data structures. Several recent applications need ...
    • Graph Compression for Adjacency-Matrix Multiplication 

      Francisco, Alexandre P.; Gagie, Travis; Köppl, Dominik; Ladra, Susana; Navarro, Gonzalo (Springer, 2022)
